I too have started having more problems since my symptoms have appeared back... but then again, I'm more stressed & not sleeping well so those will surely play a part too. Apparently, on average, IQ drops 15 points for those with sz. I'd assume the same goes for all types of psychoses.

Rather irritating today... I've suddenly got a craving for cigarettes. Doing my best not to give in.
